The Campiello
It is the oldest neighborhood in the city of Corfu, built in the architectural style of 15th-century Naples, Italy. The narrow streets (kantounia) of the neighborhood are filled with Orthodox churches adapted to the architecture of the old town, such as the Church of Saint Spyridon with its beautiful tall bell tower, the Church of Saint Theodora, which is the metropolitan church, and the sacred Temple of Kyra Antivouniotissa, a part of the Byzantine Museum. The picturesque Church of Saint Nicholas Geronton (Devekia) is also located right next to Skalinada House.
From the central Spianada Square and Liston, you encounter the Palace of Michael and George. Continuing your journey, you enter the pedestrian street of Saint Spyridon, the most famous traditional street in the old town. Here, you find the Church of Saint Spyridon with its beautiful tall bell tower. A few meters away, turning right, you come across one of the most beautiful staircases on the island with charming traditional restaurants and lovely shops offering traditional items.
Ascending these wide picturesque stairs, on the left, you encounter the courtyard of the Church of Saint Nicholas Devekia. At the end of this staircase is Skalinada House, right in the heart of the old town. Within a ten-minute walk, you can reach the city's beaches with picturesque beach bars. From this point, you can easily explore and get to know the rest of the island.
